> As long as they fit into the same place in their worldview

but... "same place in their worldview" model goes awry when things to slightly off course

most people are ok with calling rgb(255,0,0) red, but some will argue with rgb(200, 50, 20)


well "want to" isn't "does not have to"


hmm so the iranian diplomatic side can't even read english...?

I mean, I wouldn't expect a random diplomat to read iranian... but would 99.999999999% expect to read english

those iranian side who didn't point out "hey english version is different!" are all bonkers


1. The version of the ceasefire that you are got third hand from Twitter or American news outlets are not accurate.

2. Iranians can't read.

Which do you think is more likely?


> 1. The version of the ceasefire that you are got third hand from Twitter or American news outlets are not accurate.

Are they any more accurate than what Iran or America thinks? IIUC, this whole thing is phone tag.


Most likely not. I've seen Iranian sources claim that the 10 point plan is violated[1]. However I (1) do not know about Iran's government structure and (2) I can only trust other sources that I believe are trustworthy.

However I think assuming that Israel violating the ceasefire (as they have done multiple times in the past) is more reasonable than assuming a country with a ~400B GDP (similar to Hong Kong, Portugal) has leaders that "can't read".

this

think there will be some coalition of some sorts

just mentioning "toll" is enough to "be made an example"


hmm? Suez is a man-made facility, and it costs money to operate it

so... maybe we should go back to the pirate days yarrr?


> Suez is a man-made facility

If only the comment you're replying to had included another example.


> it’s that scroll bars aren’t visible

well truncating or not, that seems to be a major security UI issue...?


hmm if you know how patents work, "Google having designed AV1" isn't same as "Google 100% sure AV1 doesn't have patent infringes"

even if you're google, you can't be 100% sure if there's some obscure patent lurking around the corner


hmm maybe aws should make datacenter locations secret?

I mean, why even publish those locations?

if this is purely for PR, they can publish fake locations...

if this is for VIP visits... well you can always send private invitations


But aren't they pretty hard to hide? I mean, they cover a lot of grounds, they have lots of infrastructure leading right to them...even if someone makes a few wrong guesses, it's going to be easy to find where the data centers are.


>Disclaimer: Please be aware that Amazon Web Services does not list its data center locations publicly. Hence all AWS listings in our database are based on publicly available information from third parties, open databases, property registries, construction applications, permits, tenders, news coverage and our custom research. There may be incorrect or outdated locations, as well as locations missing.

AWS doesn't disclose their locations.


> hmm maybe aws should make datacenter locations secret?

Open source intelligence today rivals the best of any nation. That would be virtually impossible to hide for long.


idk maybe AWS should create one?

I mean, if we can use "virtual-AWS", it would dramatically lower entry-barrier for devs/companies who are scared of "tales of huge aws bills" and such


I wouldn’t hold my breath. They do have a dynamo db fake, but they don’t even release the code for it! Perhaps they’re concerned about making it really easy to clone their stuff.

But we can still do that ourselves, dynamically interrogating the real thing and comparing it to the fake.


It hasnt really been a barrier to entry though has it, cloud adoption is doing just fine.


well if I know a specific LLM has certain tendencies (eg. some model is likely to introduce off-by-one errors), I would know what to look for in code-review

I mean, of course I would read most of the code during review, but as a human, I often skip things by mistake


Tbh as long as the PR looks good, its good to go for internal testing.
